Answer:

The probability is 0.4909

Step-by-step explanation:

The following equation for nCk give as the number of ways in which we can select k elements from a group of n elements:

nCk=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}

Then, there are 220 ways in which we can select 3 candies from the 12 that are in the pack. It is calculated as:

12C3=\frac{12!}{3!(12-3)!}=220

On the other hand, there are 108 different ways to select the 3 candies in which they are all different flavors. It is calculated as:

4C3 * 3C1 * 3C1 * 3C1 = 108

Because, 4C3 give us the number of ways to select 3 flavors from the 4 flavors. From this 3 flavors selected, we are going to select one candie from each one, so we multiply 3 times by 3C1, one for each flavor.

Finally, the probability is the division between the number of ways in which we can select 3 candies with different flavors and the total number of ways in which we can select 3 candies from the 12 in the pack. This is:

P=\frac{108}{220}=0.4909

Based on the calculations, Tart & Sweet's total profit from April to June is equal to -2 dollars.

<h3>What is a bar chart?</h3>

A bar chart can be defined as a type of chart that is used for the graphical representation of a data set, especially by using rectangular bars or vertical columns.

In order to determine Tart & Sweet's total profit, we would simply add the amount of money (in dollars) generated from April to June as follows:

  • April = -8.
  • May = 2.
  • June = 4.

Total profit = -8 + 2 + 4

Total profit = -$2.
